Immortal Devil Transformation

Chapter Volume 16 69: Like Hitting a Wall



Endless waves of heaven and earth vital energy swept over from Green Luan Palace’s remains. The powerful energy felt as if countless giant pillars were descending from above. It instantly crushed all of the rock beneath Lin Xi, and then continued to push Lin Xi into the lake.

The milky white lake water was crushed until it completely parted. The tremendous energy was like a pillar as it smashed Lin Xi more than ten meters deep into the lake’s white sand, waves rushing in all directions. In the distance, those White Sword Fiends all sensed tremendous danger. They frantically left the borders of the warm lake, fleeing into the depths of Frozen God Domain.

Lin Xi’s sea of consciousness was about to split open. His entire consciousness seemed like it was going to be blasted to pieces.

His body that was rammed straight into the lake bottom by the overwhelming vital energy produced cracks one after another, blood and even the radiance of soul force leaking out. It was just too difficult for his body to endure the influx of such massive amounts of natural vital energy.

This really was causing serious injuries to both his body and mind. His spirit and flesh suffered tremendous damage.

Regardless of whether it was himself, Nangong Weiyang or the others, they had no way of stopping the infusion of this type of vital energy. His consciousness quickly scattered, immediately approaching the brink of death.

But the instant before his consciousness disappeared, the natural vital energy pouring into his body was suddenly cut off.

That pillar of energy that descended from the heavens and split the waters, then smashed him straight into the bottom of the lake disappeared. The surrounding lake water also began to gather once more.

Qin Xiyue released a cry of alarm. Nangong Weiyang’s flying sword cut into the lake water beneath Lin Xi, directly fishing out Lin Xi’s body.

Boom! Huge waves erupted. Lin Xi’s body was now above the water surface, yet the endless blood that left his body instead dyed the milky white lake water black.

Nangong Weiyang released a groan. Her flying sword exerted more force, instantly bringing Lin Xi in front of her, Gu Xinyin and Qin Xiyue.

Gu Xinyin’s complexion had long become incomparably pale. His right hand’s forefinger, middle finger and ring finger tapped out with astonishing speed, striking towards Lin Xi’s chest.

He was Green Luan Academy’s most outstanding student. After remaining in Tangcang’s water prison for so many years, he understood how to stimulate the body’s life force even more clearly. The soul force pouring out from his three fingers formed a strange rhythm, immediately attempting to protect Lin Xi’s pulse.

But the instant his fingers made contact with Lin Xi’s body, his entire arm shook. Just the rippling aura around Lin Xi’s body alone formed a thin flowing layer, this layer completely scattering his power!

Gu Xinyin looked at Lin Xi in horror.

Lin Xi already entered the deepest state of unconsciousness. His breathing and heartbeat even seemed to have already completely stopped.

Normally, anyone in Lin Xi’s current state would inevitably die, or they were already dead. No one could possibly save him.

But it was precisely because of the powerful vital energy rippling within his body that forced his soul force and blood to continue flowing, rushing through his body. This made him enter the deepest state of unconsciousness instead of truly dying.

Pu pu pu…

Countless fine spurting noises sounded from Lin Xi’s body.

Power that he couldn’t assimilate into his body rushed out together with his blood through his pores. Gu Xinyin, Nangong Weiyang and Qin Xiyue’s breathing completely stopped, their bodies shaking fiercely. They felt as if the one who was bleeding like this was themselves.

Lin Xi still didn’t die.

Moreover, regardless of whether it was Gu Xinyin, Nangong Weiyang, or Qin Xiyue who had the weakest cultivation, they could all sense a powerful force within his body that was quickly merging with his soul force.

The soul force moving through Lin Xi’s body became more and more powerful, as if sweet dew irrigated a dry and cracking land.

This type of transformation continued for a long time, continuing until no more spurts of air left Lin Xi’s body, no more power entered his soul force.

Gu Xinyin’s palm was completely covered in sweat. He was waiting for all of these changes in Lin Xi’s body to stop. When he sensed that the soul force in Lin Xi’s body had stopped flowering, yet Lin Xi was still in a deep state of unconsciousness, his face immediately became dark. He reached out his hand, his three fingers aiming at Lin Xi’s chest again.

Lin Xi’s chest continuously shook. After several halts of time passed, a weak pulse sounded from his chest. His chest began to rise and fall as well, starting to breathe.

Gu Xinyin released a breath of relief. He retracted his own hand.

“Will he live?” Nangong Weiyang asked him.

Gu Xinyin nodded. “He should.”

“Just what exactly happened?” Nangong Weiyang’s expression relaxed a bit.

Gu Xinyin looked in the direction of Green Luan Palace’s remains. He shook his head. Apart from Lin Xi himself, perhaps no one else in this world could possibly know what happened.

Lin Xi was in a state of unconsciousness.

The damage to his mind was worse than the damage to his body. However, he was already a sacred level cultivator before he entered Frozen God Domain. The years of accumulated cultivation also made his body develop some instinctive habits.

As he began to breathe, his heart began to beat, the soul force within him also began to instinctively move about. They turned into warm streams, starting to repair some of his body’s injuries. His body was able to sense the benefits of this soul force flow, so his soul force began to flow faster and faster on its own.

Soul force was a combination of one’s mental strength and the world’s vital energy to begin with. Under the flowing soul force, it began to nourish his mind as well. Lin Xi recovered a bit of consciousness. The first thing he sensed was endless pain, a pain that felt like countless blades hacked down on his head. It made it so that he couldn’t even think, it made his body twitch uncontrollably. However, at the same time, he felt a refreshing aura continuously enter his head, bringing relief to this type of pain.

He began to consciously control the soul force flow, making it even faster, sending it to many finer areas of his body. Then, under the irrigation of soul force and the pressure of that tremendous power he experienced just now, many areas of his body began to reconstruct itself, changing slightly. It was as if there were some impurities that were hammered out, and then many new things kneaded in.

Time continued to pass.

As more and more warm and refreshing auras entered his body, a feeling of extreme unease suddenly flashed past Lin Xi’s mind. He subconsciously realized that some of his body’s changes seemed to have made his breathing become extremely difficult, as if he was going to suffocate.

This feeling of suffocation made him suddenly wake up from his coma.

His body’s terrible condition immediately made him shake fiercely and vomit.

But he soon discovered that there wasn’t actually anything wrong with his breathing. However, the feeling of suffocation remained.

His retching gradually stopped, but this type of feeling seemed to have divided him from the rest of the world, it made him subconsciously enter a bitter state of thought.

The warm lake already returned to normal.

The White Sword Fiends that previously fled in alarm already returned. They filled up this place like penguins again.

From the moment Lin Xi first went unconscious to this moment, several days had already passed. This process seemed extremely long for Qin Xiyue, Nangong Weiyang and Qin Xiyue, but they still didn’t say anything when they saw this scene. They understood that Lin Xi needed enough time to get used to this transformation that was even more intense than a breakthrough.

The pain in Lin Xi’s head slowly disappeared. When this type of intense pain no longer interfered with his consciousness, he sensed that the green ‘roulette’ in his head already lost its original shape. It was as if a complete gem had a corner broken off. Then, he became completely clear-headed, realizing what happened. He could clearly sense all the changes that happened to him.contemporary romance

He began to cough lightly. He did his best to remove the terrible out of sorts feeling through all types of methods, and then he raised his head to look towards Gu Xinyin, Nangong Weiyang and Qin Xiyue. “This really is a nine deaths technique.”

Gu Xinyin was a bit stunned. However, Nangong Weiyang who understood him better frowned and said, “Stop talking so much nonsense.”

Lin Xi coughed again, and then he said with a slight bitter smile, “Even though it is nonsense, I think you guys will understand a bit better if I explain what a nine deaths technique is.”

Gu Xinyin was usually quite the carefree and optimistic person. After he killed Xiao Xiang in Tangcang and completely let go of his final hatred, he became even more open-minded. When he saw that Lin Xi’s condition didn’t seem that bad, he couldn’t help but smile and ask with interest, “What is a nine deaths technique?”

“In my world, there were many absurd and ridiculous stories. In one of the stories, there was a type of method that would only be successfully cultivated after dying nine times. If one failed to survive even once out of the nine times, then this technique would fail.” Lin Xi explained.

Gu Xinyin chuckled. He didn’t say anything else, just waiting for Lin Xi to continue.

“My original thinking was still a bit off.” Lin Xi turned around to look towards Green Luan Palace’s remains. “I thought that with this lump of energy was within me, but only when the vital energy began to pour in from the outside world did I realize that my way of thinking wasn’t completely correct. Indeed, if this energy was inside of me, then it should be of substance like soul force. Turns on the energy had always been outside. The thing I sensed was merely a connection with that external wave of energy.”

These words were hard to understand for her, but Nangong Weiyang had a vague idea of what happened from Lin Xi’s expression. As such, she immediately asked, “So what you are trying to say is that your ability… it has merely always transferred the power of that icy blue shining whirlpool? You were only able to establish some special connection with that whirlpool for some reason?”

Lin Xi nodded. “To be more precise, it should be a portion of that icy blue whirlpool’s power.”

“So Divine Generals were actually borrowing the power of that icy blue whirlpool? Even Principal Zhang was only…” Qin Xiyue understood the reasoning, but she still found it hard to accept.

Nangong Weiyang’s brows furrowed. She said in a somewhat unhappy manner, “What does all of this have to do with the nonsense you said?”

“I was mistaken in thinking that the power was inside of me. However, I still understood most things correctly.” Lin Xi said quietly with a bit of regret. “The green light in my perception is almost eternally constant like the icy blue whirlpool. Only by breaking it will it erupt with vital energy… However, my strength is weaker than its strength, yet it exists in my world. That is why the most effective method, as well as the only way, is to destroy my world. By breaking down my world, it will naturally no longer exist either. That is why I used a suicidal method… but I figured that before I die, I shouldn’t lose consciousness. This method is just like striking a wall with your head, smashing out a crack, and only then will a bit of vital energy flow out for me to absorb. It is easy for one to die when they strike a wall with their head. For better or for worse,once I became unconscious after striking that wall, this process would naturally stop, so I don’t need to repeatedly strike the wall.”

Nangong Weiyang understood what Lin Xi was saying. She became quiet for a moment, and then she said, “You are trying to say that you still have to strike that wall several times, and only then can you completely devour the vital energy you are linked to? How do you feel right now? Since that thing can only release vital energy when it breaks down, will this thing decide not to break down bit by bit, but instead completely break down? What if even more vital energy rushes out and it kills you on the spot?”

“I’m pretty sure I have to do it many times. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have called it a nine deaths technique. However, fortunately, I didn’t even die this time, so I should be able to endure it.” Lin Xi looked at Nangong Weiyang and said seriously, “Since Principal Zhang told me about it, his understanding towards this process should be more thorough than me. He should have more confidence than me. However, I’ve already thought things through as well. If it really completely collapses, then this means that my connection with that icy blue whirlpool has been completely lost. Even if that icy blue whirlpool releases more vital energy, it shouldn’t pour into my body.”

“Once a soul weapon’s runes are destroyed, it can no longer transfer the corresponding heaven and earth vital energy.” Nangong Weiyang nodded. Her brows finally completely loosened. “Your soul force will continue to grow, so you should be able to withstand the battering of even more vital energy.”

“That is why the current issue is no longer whether or not I’ll fail to withstand the energy and die.” Lin Xi looked at her, Gu Xinyin and Qin Xiyue. He said seriously, “There is now a new… most pressing issue.”
